When a bride was left at the altar, she decided to skip the pity party and destroy her wedding gown with friends and family in a “liberating” and “cathartic” photo shoot.
Shelby Swink, 23, was supposed to get married on Nov. 1 to her boyfriend of three years, but her groom got cold feet five days before the wedding, telling Shelby he didn’t love her. Shelby was left devastated, having to act quickly to cancel everything, and stuck with a wedding dress she couldn’t return.
While friends and family gathered to support Shelby, no one knew what to do the day the wedding was supposed to happen. Shelby said that a few people brought up the idea of trashing the wedding dress, but she did not want to upset her mother who had paid for the dress and alterations. click here for complete story and photo gallery
